Brevard County is pursuing a sole source procurement with WesTech Engineering, LLC for internal mechanical equipment for two solids contact clarifiers at the Mims Water Treatment Plant (WTP). The contract involves supplying replacement internal mechanical equipment, providing technical assistance during installation and start-up, and furnishing spare parts for future maintenance. The procurement is specifically targeted for replacing existing clarifier structures with equipment from the original manufacturer, which will minimize structural modifications and reduce operational disruption. The sole source opportunity is posted from April 10, 2025, at 12:00 pm until April 15, 2025, at 12:00 pm, with the procurement being processed through Vendor Link. The total purchase amount is $1,316,000.00, and the procurement will be a one-time purchase. Contact for this opportunity is Angel Dutton, who can be reached at (321) 617-7390 or angel.dutton@brevardfl.gov. The county has reserved the right to cancel the notice and pursue a formal solicitation if substantially similar products or services are identified from other potential vendors. The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. WesTech Engineering, LLC is the incumbent and proposed sole source vendor, with the justification based on their status as the original equipment manufacturer for the existing clarifier structures. Brevard County staff consulted with ClearStream and the utility services department's consulting firm Black & Veatch, who confirmed that using WesTech's clarifier equipment would reduce installation risks and improve overall water treatment plant capacity. The existing infrastructure at the Mims WTP was originally manufactured by WesTech, which further supports the sole source justification by minimizing potential complications during equipment replacement. The procurement will require integration with existing water treatment plant infrastructure, with a focus on maintaining consistent operational procedures and minimizing structural modifications. The total contract value is $1,316,000.00, representing a one-time purchase for equipment, installation support, and spare parts.
